Alex Giordano has a show on CIVL called Thrash & Trash on Thursdays at 10 p.m. You should listen to it.
Psychostick – “It’s Just a Movie Stupid”
This song is about chick flicks and how they are stupid and bad pieces of cinema. The verses of the song are very stock and generically pop-ish sounding, which is a metaphor for chick flicks themselves; but the chorus is a harsh but honest opinion of the story.
Lemon Demon – “Vanilla”
This song is very short and has no real message, but the tune always makes me smile. The song does not make sense but it doesn’t have to. The basis of the song is a guy talking about a person he knows who knows a snowman named Vanilla.
The Urge – “It’s My Turn to Fly”
I heard this song in my childhood. It’s in a movie called Titan A.E., and the song just always brings me back to my youth. Something about this song makes me feel like I could fight a bear on fire, and win. A must listen if you’re feeling down.
A-Ha – “Take on Me”
This song is a must play, all the time! I like to bring it out at parties because everyone will get up and dance, and it’s one of those songs where the drunker people are, the more they will enjoy it. There is also a really good cover of this song by Reel Big Fish.
